Reading Liz Solkhon (November 19) reminded me of my mother's silk stockings.
She always handled them wearing a pair of white cotton gloves and would smooth her feet and legs first to make sure there were no rough bits anywhere before she would carefully roll the stockings on.
The same cotton gloves would be worn when she took them off again or washed them in Lux soap flakes.
She would dry both stockings and gloves on a towel laid flat on the floor.
Liz's description of the lovely lady sexily displaying her charms was very cinematic.
I remember my mum topping her lovely stockings with a pair of pink Directoire knickers.
